Director Mai had heard about the mutual aid association, but the association's accounts were clean, and neither he nor the industry and commerce authorities could find anything wrong with them.
However, they have never stopped paying attention to the mutual aid association.
Based on their understanding, they only knew that many people had joined the mutual aid association, but they never expected that in just over half a year, the association's cash pool would snowball and grow bigger and bigger.
“Director Mai, we can’t wait any longer. If we wait any longer, many people will want to withdraw their funds before the New Year. If the mutual aid association can’t come up with the money then, it will definitely collapse. This is Beijing! Under the emperor’s nose, such a big thing has happened, and it has a wide reach. We can’t just sit and wait to die.”
Director Mai was aware of this, but this was not an ordinary economic case, and he couldn't make a decision.
As far as he knew, the wives of several leaders in the compound had all voted, and he was afraid of causing trouble by shutting down the mutual aid society at this time.
I'm afraid there's someone behind the mutual aid group.
But no matter how powerful the tiger behind it is, can it be greater than the interests of the people?
Director Mai poured himself a cup of tea, took two sips, and then looked up:
"Xiao Cheng, you initiated this matter, and you've been a long-time employee of our bureau for a while now. Tell me, what are your thoughts?"
Cheng Lanjun shared her thoughts. Her idea was simple: release Zhou Huilan, pretend nothing had happened, lower Zhou Huilan and the mutual aid society's guard, lure out the people behind the mutual aid society, and then wipe them all out.
Director Mai frowned, thinking it was a good idea.
What should we do about Jiang Meifeng?
"She kept her mouth shut and didn't say anything. She seemed like an illiterate rural woman who didn't know anything, but I always felt that she was not simple. She came to Beijing earlier than Zhou Huilan and had been living with Zhou Jian'an. I just called Deyang to verify the situation. It is said that her daughter, Zhou Fangchun, had set up a guild in Deyang. After the guild collapsed, the creditors blocked her at home, and she went to great lengths to get to Beijing. Jiang Meifeng couldn't possibly not know about Zhou Fangchun's situation."
“Jiang Meifeng did appear too calm, and she kept trying to get out, showing great anxiety. We reasonably suspect that she wants to abscond with the money. It would be better to keep her locked up and release Zhou Huilan. If Zhou Huilan asks, we can say that Jiang Meifeng refused to confess to trafficking women, and according to regulations, she cannot be released.”
The next morning, Zhou Huilan was released. When she returned to the mutual aid society, Zhou Fangchun was stunned.
"What? What's with that expression? I know some people don't want me to come out, but what can I do? I'm just lucky. The police think I'm innocent, so they released me without saying a word."
